Planting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Choose a planting area with full sun to partial shade (4 to 8 hours of sunlight per day). They need the sun to develop the pretty red fruits, and while Hollies have both “male” and “female” plants, Nellie Stevens is a variety that produces berries reliably without a “male” around for pollination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo plant your Nellie (be sure to wear gloves), dig a hole as deep as the tree’s root ball and twice as wide. Remove the tree from the container and place in the hole (this is where the gloves come in handy) If the tree’s root ball is situated lower than the surrounding soil, pick up the tree and add some more soil to the hole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFill in around the tree with a 50\/50 blend of the native soil you removed from the planting hole and a mixture of gardening soil. Mulch around your tree with shredded hardwood or pine straw.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2. Watering: \u003c\/strong\u003eNellie Stevens is fairly drought tolerant. Water new trees twice a week for the first two months. After two months, water once a week up until six months. At that time, the tree will be well-established and will only need extra water if it is very windy and sunny during the winter.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA good rule of thumb for watering broad-leaf evergreens (trees with wide evergreen leaves) is to water deeply (count to forty on each plant) once a week for the month before the ground typically freezes. If you have several days above 50 to 60 degrees in the winter, it doesn’t hurt to give your Nellie Stevens Holly trees a drink.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e3. Pruning: \u003c\/strong\u003eHolly Trees grow tall and shapely without much pruning. If you want a bushier, rounder plant, cut off the top of the tree. This will cause buds in the interior of the tree to sprout and the tree will have a fuller look. You can also hedge or prune these trees for shape. Always cut back to a leaf to hide your pruning cuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e4.

When grown outside in more tropical areas, the mango can take cold snaps that drop as low as 30 degrees.

The acidic planting mix will have lots of potassium to make your mangoes taste more flavorful!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Directions (potted):\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e1) Select a pot that has multiple drainage holes in the bottom and is 2 sizes bigger than what the mango initially arrived in.\u003cbr\u003e2) Fill in the open pot space around the root system with a quality potting mix that has a light acidic side to it. \u003cbr\u003e3) Tamp down the potting soil as you would if the tree was planted in the ground to prevent any air pockets from forming. \u003cbr\u003e4) Water the mango well so the soil has been evenly moistened and allow the soil to settle.\u003cbr\u003e5) Ensure the tree is in a very sunny location as this tree does need full sun to thrive. 6-8+ hours each day is best for the exposure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWatering: \u003c\/strong\u003eMangoes are rarely ever thirsty but for their first two weeks of establishing, they \u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003etry to water daily to help with establishment. After the first two weeks water as needed when the soil is dry a few inches down. Mangos can be sensitive to overwatering, so feel the soil before watering and adjust accordingly based on your weather. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFertilizer: DO NOT USE CHEMICAL FERTILIZER!\u003c\/strong\u003e Mangoes are easily burnt by fertilizers high in ammonium nitrate. The best fertilizer is a natural, organic one with mycorrhizal fungi and beneficial bacteria. A little gardening secret that Indians used to do that works wonders on mangoes, bury a fish touching the roots of your plant. The fish contains lots of nutrient crucial to a mango in its first years. Potted mangos will benefit from a balanced fertilizer formula such as a 10-10-10 while actively growing. Cut back on feeding the tree nitrogen in flowering period, instead provide a boost of phosphorus and potassium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeed Control: \u003c\/strong\u003eWeeds steal vital nutrients from the plants around them. The best way to keep weeds at bay and help your tree grow is with pine bark. Placing a one-inch thick layer three feet around the base of your tree will stop the weeds. Also another bonus is as the pine bark decomposes, it will raise the acidity of your soil naturally!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePruning: \u003c\/strong\u003eOn a mango tree the fruit forms at the ends of the branches. Because pruning causes the tree to put on more lateral branches, pruning will give you more mangoes. Mangoes are very forgiving so don’t be afraid to prune them, but don’t go crazy and scalp the thing. Your goal when pruning should be to form an open crown so that light and air can penetrate to the middle of the tree. This will reduce the risk of fungus and diseases. The best time of year to prune your mango tree is right after the harvest; but in cooler areas you will be better off pruning just before the mango starts to flower. Some light pruning of the potted mango is good. These trees do not typically require a lot of pruning, just be sure to remove dead, damaged or diseased branches to help control the tree’s shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePollination: \u003c\/strong\u003eMangoes are excellent self-pollinators and will produce fruit by themselves.

In cooler environments, they can take up to 8 hours of direct light. In warmer climates, they will need protection from the hot sun, but still, they need 6 hours of filtered light to bloom properly. Encore® azaleas prefer an acidic, well-draining, moist soil. They perform best with a pH range of 5.5 to 6.5 and you can purchase a test kit at any garden center to verify the acidity of the soil. If your soil is not well-draining, you can amend it with compost or planting mix which will also help to lower the pH level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting directions (in the ground): \u003c\/strong\u003eEncore® azaleas are compact shrubs and need to be spaced about 2 feet to form a hedge.

During the cooler times of the year, you will only need to water twice a week. Thoroughly water the area making sure that the roots are never in standing water, this can lead to root rot. During the hotter times of the year, they will need to be watered every other day, depending on the weather. Do not allow the roots to be saturated for extended periods of time. Allow the water to seep deeply into the soil to ensure that all of the roots receive water. Encore® azaleas are not considered to be drought-tolerant, so during times of excessive heat, you will need to water even more established plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWatering (potted): \u003c\/strong\u003eWater your plant thoroughly until water runs through the drainage holes.

It tends to produce nuts much more rapidly than other species of pecan trees do. Pawnees are commonly planted in USDA growing zones 6-9, prefer a full sun location, will mature to a fairly large height of 20-30 feet and a width of 15-25 feet wide. This particular pecan is a cross between the “Mohawk” and the “Starking Hardy Giant” nut trees. They’re drought tolerant, have a fairly moderate growth rate and their thin shells make them easy to crack open and enjoy! Be sure to pair it with another pecan tree such as the Elliott to ensure proper pollination for the nuts to grow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeasonal Information: \u003c\/strong\u003eWith the proper care trees can be planted during anytime of the year as long as the ground isn’t frozen. However, it is best to plant in the early spring or early fall. This will allow your trees to get rooted into the ground before the stress of hot summer weather or cold winter temperatures set in. If you plant in the fall, plant six weeks before the first frost and if you plant in the spring, wait until six weeks after the final frost. If you plant in the summer, make sure that your trees get enough water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSelecting a location: \u003c\/strong\u003eWhen choosing a place to plant your pecan trees remember that they grow best in full sunlight. These trees can tolerate partial shade, but will need at least six hours of sunlight a day in order to flourish. Avoid planting your pecan trees in an area that’s prone to flooding or that collects standing water. Pecan trees can grow quite large, so give them enough space to reach their mature size and avoid planting them under power lines or too close to your home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Directions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e1) Once you have the perfect planting location scouted out dig a hole that’s just as deep as the root ball, and three times as wide.\u003cbr\u003e2) Take a pitch fork or shovel and use it to loosen the soil around the sides of the hole. Remove any debris like grass, dirt clumps, or rocks from inside of the hole.\u003cbr\u003e3) Place your tree in the hole and make sure that its level with the surrounding ground and standing straight upwards a 90 degree angle.\u003cbr\u003e4) Next back fill your hole and gently tamp the soil down to prevent air pockets from forming.\u003cbr\u003e5) Once the planting process is complete give your tree a long drink of water and mulch around the tree to conserve soil moisture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWatering: \u003c\/strong\u003ePecan trees are often thirsty ones. Make sure to keep your soil moist, but not over saturated. Check on the soil every few days, when the top soil feels like it’s starting to dry out give your tree a slow, long drink of water by holding a hose at its base and counting to 20 or 30 seconds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFertilization: \u003c\/strong\u003ePecan trees should be fertilized once a year annually in the early spring.

To prevent weeds from growing under your tree spread a 3 to 4 inch thick layer of mulch around the trunk. The mulch will prevent weeds from growing and it will also help the soil retain moisture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePruning: \u003c\/strong\u003eIt is best to prune your Pecan trees in the early spring, or the early fall. You will need a sharp and sterile pair of loppers or hand pruners. Look at your tree and make a plan before pruning, map out what and where you would like to prune. Remember you can always prune more later and you don’t want to over prune. Remove any dead, diseased, broken, rubbing, or crossing ranches. Make your cuts at a 45 degree angle facing upwards to promote new growth. If a branch is infected cut it back about 6 inches past the infected area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePollination: \u003c\/strong\u003ePecan trees are partially self-fertile.

A 24 inch container holds a 5-foot tree; adjust accordingly to the proper sized container. Wash the container with a mild soap and water and allow it to air dry.\u003cbr\u003e 2) Place the container in the spot you wish to grow the papaya tree, or have a dolly available to move the container once the papaya tree is replanted. Depending on the size of the container, it may be too heavy to move easily.\u003cbr\u003e 3) Fill half of the container with a lightweight potting soil. Place the papaya tree's root ball in the center of the container. Pour additional potting soil around the root ball until the container is full within 3 to 4 inches of the top. Make sure the tree is positioned in the middle of the container; push the soil down firmly to make sure it does not move out of position.\u003cbr\u003e 4) Water the tree thoroughly but do not allow water to stand on top of the soil. Keep the soil watered every three to four days to avoid moisture-stress of the tree.\u003cbr\u003e 5) Place a layer of mulch over the top of the soil to preserve moisture and keep the roots of the tree at a steady temperature.\u003cbr\u003e 6) Feed the tree every three to four weeks with a water soluble-fertilizer that contains equal portions of nitrogen, potassium and phosphate -- such as a 10-10-10 formula. Follow the manufacturer's directions to mix the fertilizer with water; do not apply too much.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting instructions (in ground):\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e1) Plant your papaya plant where it will receive full sun, away from power lines and other trees.\u003cbr\u003e 2) Amend clay soil with organic matter, like peat moss, to improve drainage. Do not amend the soil with compost and do not fertilize.\u003cbr\u003e 3) Dig out the amended soil in a hole 3 times the size of the container of the plant. Fill the hole back up until there is a space slightly larger than the container.\u003cbr\u003e 4) Place the root ball in the hole.\u003cbr\u003e 5) Fill the hole the rest of the way with the native soil and tamp it down then water the tree deeply.\u003cbr\u003e 6) Soak the soil at least 8\" down. Wait about a half hour after you've finished and then dig down in the soil with your trowel. If it's not wet 8\" or more below the surface, you either haven't watered enough or you watered too fast and the water ran off elsewhere. A gentle soak for an hour or 2 is better than puddling soil around your plants and moving on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWatering:\u003c\/strong\u003e Watering is the most critical aspect in raising papayas. Water the papaya plants around the root zone. Papayas need plenty of water to grow tasty fruit, but the plants do not tolerate wet feet (saturated soil). To avoid overwatering the papaya, water deeply only when the top 1 inch of soil dries. If the soil isn't moist 8 inches below the surface you'll need to water more. In the winter season the plant prefers to remain as dry as possible. A plant that has been injured by frost is particularly susceptible to root rot. In the summer they can handle all the water you can give them provided the soil drains well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePollination:\u003c\/strong\u003e Papaya does not require a second tree for pollination because the male flowers on the tree can pollinate the female flowers on the same tree. However, papaya trees will provide a better fruit yield when there is an additional tree close by. Both insects and wind patterns move pollen between flowers of different papaya plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePruning:\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e1) Put on gloves and safety glasses before pruning a papaya tree. The latex sap of the papaya may cause skin irritation in sensitive individuals.\u003cbr\u003e 2) Remove broken or dead leaves and their stems with anvil pruners or loppers. Use anvil pruners on small stems, under 5\/8 inch in diameter. Loppers are usually used on larger stems, under 2 1\/2 inches in diameter.\u003cbr\u003e 3) Prune all branches, removing them completely. The papaya generally doesn't develop branches unless the stem is damaged.\u003cbr\u003e 4) Cut off any shoots sprouting from the base of the papaya. If the papaya tree is several years old and fruit production is slowing, allow one shoot to grow after the harvest, usually in September. In the spring, remove the main stem and stake the shoot, encouraging it to become a new, fruiting stem.\u003cbr\u003e 5) Revitalize a papaya tree that's grown too tall by cutting the main stem off in the spring, 3 feet from the ground. Cover the remaining stem with a garbage bag to protect it from water or rain. Several shoots will quickly sprout from the base of the papaya. When the shoots are 1 foot tall, select the strongest shoot as a new main stem. Remove all the other shoots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFertilizing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Papaya requires regular applications of nitrogen fertilizers monthly.

Slowly growing to a height of 20-30 feet tall and 20 feet wide, they bloom in the very early spring before most other spring trees, even when it can still seem winter like outside. These trees can grow in full sun, but prefer dappled shade.

It's best to plant the tree as soon as you bring it home from the nursery, but it's important to avoid planting the tree during extremely dry weather and to give it at least six weeks to develop before the first frost of the season.
